Weirdly a ton of the women I know started with tampons and moved to pads. However whatever keeps your bits minty fresh and happy is what is of the utmost importance.
Believe it or not, an older friend who grew up in the small town of a red state told me when she was young, some pharmacists wouldn’t sell tampons to unmarried girls. One of the craziest things I’d ever heard at the time.
@Reject awww don't worry about me lol. I'm just being dramatic. As unhinged as I seem, I've actually got it together. I'm just finally letting myself feel the emotions instead of acting like I have none, or ignoring them.
And after I've expressed them, it doesn't feel like such a weight anymore. I'm actually a lot happier. More than I've ever been I think?
And because I'd wipe before sliding it in. Common sense maybe there should be some lubrication down there maybe, but I'm used to patting dry and getting on with it. 😂
@SailorMarz That’s good to hear! Yes, let it all out. People need to process emotions. I can see a reason why you’d be happier. You’re free now, and can experience a whole new side of life you didn’t get to know before better than you’ve ever been. It’s exciting.
Oh! That’s good to know in case I ever have a daughter. The mom would probably handle such things, but it doesn’t hurt to understand.
